Good morning!

Here are some pictures from the weekend in Corpus. Notice we are kind of prop intensive in most of the these shots. We dove pretty intensely into Inner and Outer Spiral during the weekend and did a lot of work in the hips!

Here is it is as a prep for Inner and Outer spiral in eka pada rajakapotasana...

And me selfishly enjoying the assistance.... Inner Spiral in the back leg of janu sirsasana... The sisters...Shins in/thighs out in Trikonasana- making room for the front leg to Outer Spiral..

Again.... Reviewing the flows of energy ... Demo! A Chorus Line Focus...

The guys learning ardha chandra chapasana...

It was a really fun weekend.

Yesterday I spent some time finishing a Certification Video Review. (Marjorie, I just have to talk to Denise and then you and I will talk...) gathering the material for the appendices of my book, handling some correspondences and making a flyer for the 20-hour Teacher Training that I am going to have here in July. Sorry everyone for the late notice but Laura and I were not sure if YogaYoga would host it or not and how many people were really interested in the training so by the time a decision was made, it is now only a month out with a definite date.

July 18-20 here in San Marcos we will do a 20-hour Teacher Training on The Art of Sequencing. Also because I think it will be small group we can address whatever concerns, issues, questions,etc. arise and are relevant to the attendees. While we started this training with the Immersion grads who need 50-hours of TT for the Anusara-Inspired status requirements, Anyone who has done an immersion and a 30-hour Level One training is welcome to attend. If you want info about that just email me or call me and I can send you a flyer or answer any questions.

I did make it to the river yesterday to read and swim and that was fun and summery. Then I showered and did a nice practice on the bolsters. (The Goddesses if the Red Tent are smiling on me because had we had a group practice on Monday nothing in a back bending extravaganza would have been appropriate but by Wednesday I will be ready to go for it!)

Great shots! I love seeing all those straps- it brings back some really good teaching methodology memories. I need to go back in my notes and look at some of the stuff we did so long ago.I am off to Japan tomorrow to study with the man- wish I felt more in fighting form. Hope you will check in on me once in a while...in your spare time..lolLove Leanne :>)

On Practice

“Who is an authentic seeker, but someone who has understood that there is nothing else to do but practice? Enthusiastic or discouraged, he or she continues, no matter what."-Lee Lozowick

"I believe that we learn by practice. Whether it means to learn to dance by practicing dancing, or to learn to live by practicing living, the principles are the same. In each, it is the performance of a dedicated, precise set of acts, physical or intellectual, from which come shape of achievement, the sense of one’s being, the satisfaction of spirit. One becomes in some area an athlete of God. Practice means to perform over and over again, in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire." - Martha Graham

"Abhyasa (practice) is a dedicated, unswerving, constant, and vigilant search into a chosen subject pursued against all odds in the face of repeated failures, for indefinitely long periods of time."- B.K.S. Iyengar

The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called "truth." ~Dan Rather
